Hezbollah didn't really "stand up to the ME supper power and survive" Ok what do you call it. Israel has been defeated. Just say it do not dance around it. Israel used only a fraction of its army in this conflict. Excuses. Of course that doesn't stop Hezbollah from spinning the situation as one where it stood up and remained mostly intact against the worst that Israel could dish out. The victor has the right to crow. I will not forget it, Good, you admit that Israel is a terrorist state. t tells me that the current government of Israel did a half-assed job. Its possible that the situation was such that doing the job right wouldn't be called for. It certainly would have been very difficult. But if that's the case than they should have responded in a different way from the beginning. Talking about crushing Hezbollah, unleashing a major air campaign, calling up reserves, and then basically stopping is paying most of the price to get none of the potential gains. Excuses again. This stunt costed lots $$ on both sides and most of all the Israeli reputation and the US credibility. Please put a spin on this one.
